The secretary answered, “I’ll go and buy now. The head of the public relations department came to see you just now and she asked me to call her when you come here, shall I call her to come over now?” Cormac said yes, “Ask her to come.”
After saying that, he led Loredana into the office. The secretary saw that his boss was very considerate to Loredana. Thinking of the denigration of some keyboard warriors on the internet, she could not help but sneered at those uninformed people who liked to speculate blindly.
After entering the office, Loredana said, “Do what you need to do, I’ll wait for you in the lounge.”
Cormac did have some works to do, so he told her to wait for him in the lounge, “If you want to sleep, just take a nap on the sofa.”
Loredana said yes but she was repulsed in her heart, it did not seem appropriate for her to sleep at his working place.
She sat on the sofa and picked up a random book to read.
After a short while, there was a knock on the office door. Cormac looked up and said, “Come in.”
Soon, the head of the public relations department pushed the door and walked in, inadvertently seeing Loredana sitting on the sofa, she greeted her with a smile, “Hello, Mrs. Mendelsohn.”
Loredana was extremely uncomfortable with this title and smiled stiffly, politely nodding at her as a response.
“Anything?” Cormac put down the document in his hand and leaned back on his chair.
“Have you read the news about you?” The head of the public relations department asked openly.
Cormac replied yes softly.
“Our official account is going to be in deep trouble soon. I think you have to make some clarifications,” The head of the public relations department said.
Cormac frowned, ‘What does the official account have to do with me?’
‘The official account is the corporate official account, not my personal account.’
“What had happened?”
The head of the public relations department explained, “It’s like this, don’t you see that the followers of our official account have reached 70 million?” Cormac leaned lazily, “Isn’t it the business of the PR department?”
The head of the public relations department smiled, “Yes, it’s our business, however, a corporate account can’t attract so many people’s attention.”
“So?”
“That’s why we will usually post the photos of the business owners.” The head of the public relations department said truthfully, “The people are not paying attention to the business but the business owners. They pay attention to the business incidentally.”
Cormac glanced at her. He always trusted her ability. He really did not pay too much attention to public relations. He would glance at the official Weibo occasionally but he did not pay too much attention to what was posted. After listening to her words, he browsed through the previous posts on the official Weibo.
He was shocked to see that the posts were all his photos.
“You’re more attractive than the business, so think of it as an advertisement for the company,” The head of the public relations department said.
Cormac had a headache. He pressed his brow hard, “So, you’re the one who created all my troubles?”
The head of the public relations department explained unhurriedly, “How dare I create trouble for you, I just think you can take this opportunity to disclose your wife’s identity and let the employees attend your wedding feast.”
Cormac raised his eyes. It was clearly a mocking tone, but there was a smile on his face, “From what you’re saying, I still have to thank you?”
“If you think I’ve done you a favor, just give the employees a large amount of money when you get married.” The head of the public relations department was very good at reading people’s minds. She knew that Cormac was not angry before she said this, “You are single before but now you have suddenly appeared in the public with your wife, which will naturally attract many attentions. It’s because there is no wedding feast, so the public does not know that you are married. There are many good and bad speculations about your wife’s identity. Of course, the good ones are good and the bad ones are really bad. I think it’s time you give your wife an identity.”
She said all these by putting herself in the shoes of a woman. Although she could see that Cormac treated Loredana very well, without a proper identity, there would always be speculation.
How could Cormac not wish to? He had been thinking about it for a long time, but there were so many things that happened and delayed it and now she was pregnant.
“I know about this. You can leave and do your business now.” Cormac understood her words.
The head of the public relations department exited the office and closed the door.
Cormac walked over and sat beside her, “I think she has a point, why don’t we take this opportunity…”
“Is it the right time now?” Loredana interrupted him, “Not to mention the fact that you haven’t settled the previous issue, my stomach can’t even fit into a wedding dress.”
“I’ll have someone make you a larger size one, as for Declan’s issue, are we not going to get married once we don’t solve the issue?” Cormac had made up his mind. He did not want the public to misunderstand them. He wanted to give her and the children a proper identity.
‘My son and daughter will go to primary school soon. If they have an unclear identity, they will be speculated.’
“But…”
“Listen to me this time.” His attitude was unusually resolute and could not be denied, “If it’s not for you, you have to think of your children. They need a proper identity to stand up in front of everyone.” Loredana lowered her eyes. She understood what Cormac meant. It was just that Theresa had not recovered from her injuries and Declan’s issue had not yet settled, she thought that it was not a right time to get married now.
However, Cormac also had a point. The two children needed their identities. It was fine for her to be speculated, but not for the two children.
That would cause them to be distressed. If it was serious, it would affect them psychologically.
She lowered her eyes, “I’ll do as you say, you arrange it.”
Cormac said yes softly. He reached out his hand to lift her hair and twisted it between his fingers, “I’ll ask dad to help us to set up a date.”
Loredana’ parents were no longer around and he only had his father, so it was right that the elders should attend the wedding so that it looked official. Furthermore, it was good to hold the wedding on a lucky day. Although he was not superstitious, he wanted to pick an auspicious day to hold the wedding feast he had always wanted for Loredana.
He was thinking about where was the most suitable place to hold the wedding.
However, Loredana’ mood did not seem to be high.
He could not help but felt a little lost. Was not every woman have a vision of her wedding?
Why she did not have it?
“Don’t you even have any ideas?”
Loredana took his hand away and told him to behave appropriately. It was bad to let the secretary see that when she came in. She replied seriously, “Yes, but that was in the past. Now, I have got used to you.” Even without a wedding, she had already thought of Cormac as her husband.
She once imagined that she would meet a man who was like a prince and then she would dress up beautifully, held his hand and walked into the hall of marriage when she was a young girl.
She wished to give birth to a son and a daughter and lived a normal life. But then a lot of unexpected things happened. She betrayed herself, got pregnant and married him.
Those things had already shattered all her wonderful illusions and disqualified her from being loved.
Later on, she gave birth to a child and supported her family on her own. She never behaved emotionally in the house as she did not want Maxina to worry about her. She would cry secretly at night.
She was only in her twenties, but her experience was like half a lifetime.
She had overcome all the grievous moments. Her state of mind now was as calm as those people in their forties and fifties. She did not have the urge to show off long ago.
She understood the meaning of life well. The most exciting love could become dull at some point.
The most valuable thing was to be able to love each other deeply in the humdrum life.
